My Opinion
##########

These are excellent headphones. The earcups are a nice size, they are really padded to give you enough comfort - they don't hurt your ears after gaming long durations. They cover your whole ear. The top band can be resized as you feel comfortable.

The sound quality is superb. I would even compare these to my Pro studio headphones - the quality is amazing (I was pleasantly surprised). It has Passive attenuation of up to 32 dB. The bass quality is really good - I've heard things on these which my TV speakers would leave out!

The collapsible design for easy transport makes these really good for storage. There is no worry of "crushing" these and messing up the headband.

The connection will allow you to connect these not only to your playstation - but you can hook these upto any sound card device - computer, laptop, even a hifi system (without the microphone technology)

These feature a volume control with a mute function too. Which is really useful - because I become all too unaware of my surroundings when I'm really into a game!

The microphone is really responsive - I have tested it on my PC and it is amazing - the sound quality is super, and most of all it sounds like me! Have you ever used one of those cheap microphones which really change your voice, and make you sounds different? Well these will not do that - these are super quality.



Conclusion
#########

Here you are getting super duper quality headphones and a microphone. Nothing has been held back on this. The sounds is amazing and the microphone is ultra responsive and high quality.

The headset is super comfortable to wear, and looks really sleek.

Summary: Amazing quality, you wont be dissaponted!
